This is a name that comes directly from the USB specification, and as
such, those usages of CamelCase are allowed as they refer to well-known
fields.

But, the field is called bcdDevice, not bcdDevice_initial, so this could
get a better name overall as it doesn't directly match up, so it should
be changed to something a bit nicer.
